Bill > SB00226

This bill proposes to increase the threshold for sealed bidding on municipal contracts for the purchase of real and personal property from $25,000 to $50,000. The current law allows municipalities to establish requirements for competitive bidding, and specify that sealed bidding is not required for contracts or purchases valued at less than a certain amount, which cannot exceed $25,000. This bill would raise that threshold to $50,000, giving municipalities more flexibility in their procurement processes for lower-value contracts.
